Most ma rine phyla were unable to manage the transition to land and remain aquatic to this day.� Arthropods found a way, and scorpions, spiders, and millipedes were early pioneers.� The insect and fish clades comprise the most successful terrestrial animals today, as fish led to all terrestrial vertebrates.� Gastropods made it to land, mainly as snails and slugs, as did several worm phyla, but the rest of aquatic life generally remained water-bound.� Also, many animal clades have moved back-and-forth between water and land, usually hugging the shoreline, sometimes in a single organism�s life cycle, which blurred the terrestrial/aquatic divide at times.� The first fish to venture past shore seem to have accomplished it in the mid-Devonian, and colonizing land via freshwater environments was a prominent developmental path.

And now if you have a great artist they can still start a golden age, but they also have this new ability to create a great work." The most interesting accounts of other cultures encountered by Arab Muslims are contained in a book on the travels of Ibn Battutah of Tangier (1304-1377), who over a period of 25 years traveled to Asia Minor, Mongolia, Russia, China, the Maldives, Southeast Asia and Africa and recounted his travels and the influence of early Muslim traders in those regions.
